Hi Hlaser99

Wine is free software VMWare isn't. There is some info on our web site http://www.bob-pearson.net/linux_faq.html which may be of help to you. If you have any more questions we will try and answer them, earliest reply will now be Monday morning, hope this helps, Bob.

Can you help with this problem?
